To ARI -
C - Mikael Backlund
1st - 19th Overall Pick
RW - Andrew Mangiapane (RFA)
RW - Dmitry Zavgorodniy (B+ Prospect)

To CGY -
D - Oliver Ekman-Larsson


Arizona is apparently looking to acquire a First Round Pick. They have had talks with AZ supposedly and are interested in Backlund, meanwhile Flames are interested in OEL to beef up their defence. Imo OEL has been declining slowly for years but is still a tremendous addition to any team.

PROS :
* AZ gains a 1st Round Pick to make up for their penalty

* AZ acquires a gritty 2C who his very good defensively and can also put points up, Backlund is also a huge upgrade over Dvorak and Soderberg

* AZ acquires a young fast RW who also plays a good defensive energetic game

* CGY beefs up their defence adding a Top 3-4 Defensemen

OEL is a number one defensmen and could fetch way more then this. Add Valimaki and Dubé and it’s closer.

It's a fair trade. It would take something like that to get OEL.

This must be the AZ comedy thread. OEL isn't nearly as good as you think and he's certainly worth no where near what you're suggesting. If Treliving has any brains at all he'll steer clear of OEL.
